PRODUCTIVE YIELD, NITROGEN AND RAW FIBER OF THE FORAGE OF WHITE BOLAINA (GUAZUMA SP.) CULTIVATED AS PROTEIN BANK, IN SATIPO

Abstract

The cattle agro forestry is presented as an alternative sustainable cattle rising; therefore, the objective of the study is to determine the productive yield during three periods post uniformity trimming, and to determine the nitrogen composition and raw fiber of the white Bolaina’s forage, cultivated as a protein bank. This study was carried out in the county of Satipo, department of Junín, at 674 meters above sea level, in the Experimental Area of the Agricultural Sciences Faculty in Satipo. For the study, 90 Bolaina Blanca seedlings were used, that aged 26 months post installation, distributed in 9 experimental units, each one of them with 10 seedlings. The independent variable was the post uniformity trimming period: treatment 1. 30 days post trimming; treatment 2, 60 days post trimming, and treatment 3, 90 days post pruning. The dependent variables were: yield of green forage, yield of dry matter, and the forage’s composition percentage of nitrogen and raw fiber. The variance analysis was used by a complete randomly blocks’ design, making use of the Duncan test at a significance level of 0.05. The best productive Bolaina yield was obtained at the 30 days post uniformity trimming, with 19.82 and 3.97 grams per green forage plant and dry matter respectively. The yields at 30, 60 and 90 days post uniformity was during dry times of the area. The protein content and raw fiber was r6.9% and 25.3% respectiely.
